Yeah…this is a sign of how absolutely nuts this last month has been. Gill sent this to us, and it was supposed to be a Mother’s Day post. She sent us material, and we were too friggin insane busy to get it up on the site. It’s now June 1, and here it is. Um…I …

The Freedom I Find In A Guide Dog
I’m going to try and get into 2 carnivals in a row. Holy crap! So, the topic of this carnival is freedom. Funnily enough, for me, I had a bit of a harder time coming up with something. I blame being busy and tired. But after thinking for a while, I think I settled on …
Tansy’s Life Lesson
The other day, I was thinking about how Trixie modeled never giving up. I wondered what lesson Tansy could teach me, besides give everything you do everything you’ve got until you have nothing left, at which point, you just recharge and do it again. I don’t know if I could do that over and over …
The Weekend That Was
Here’s Gill with some thoughts on her Easter weekend…which was a lot more eventful than mine. I’m not complaining, just sayin’. The Good Friday Shoe Disaster Have you ever been ready to go somewhere and you spill something down your front, realize you aren’t wearing two of the same shoes, or even …
Another Little Guy Wants Birthday Cards…Here We Go Again
I was just thinking about how our Another Postcard tag hadn’t had a workout in a while, and I was hoping people had learned and weren’t doing this anymore. nope. I have been yelled at in the comments for saying this whole asking for cards thing is a bad idea. I have been told to …

I Think I’m Gonna Bother You
I forgot to write about this in the post about my brother’s wedding. Oh well, I felt this thing neded its own post anyway. Warning! I’m probably about to sound like a very old woman. When the dancing started, all the songs were pretty good. After their first dance, they played the song that was …

Another Sibling Officially Married Off
I should write about this before it gets too crazy late. My brother got married a couple of weeks ago. Well, this was the big affair that they had been planning out anyway. They technically got married in City Hall back in 2012, but since you can’t invite everybody you’d want at your wedding to …
Let’s Play A Game Of Hide And…What Happens Next?
This came up in “This is true” almost a month ago. Pia Farrenkopf, or at least they think it’s Pia Farrenkopf, was found mummified in the back of her car in her garage. Tests seem to indicate she died in 2008. Authorities aren’t saying it’s her for sure until they get conclusive evidence like dental …

People Stole Gas Cards out of GDB vehicles
I saw this 2 weeks ago, and meant to post about it…but my brother was getting married, so I didn’t have time. Back in December/January, 3 people broke into GDB vehicles and stole gas cards. They used them and stole about $4800. It’s bad enough to steal from anybody, but to steal from a guide …
